You want me, my garden, my roots To bend your way You would brave the thorns and the vines To find me there You will get what you're after I won't ever forget The way that it felt As long as I live You want me like you want the truth To read your way You would write your own provenance To put me down You will get what you're after I won't ever forget The way that it felt As long as I live I will carry it with me It's my burden to bear I will take it everywhere I will make it everything If there's a way I'll seek it out I'll follow it down I'll walk off the edge, come on You want me, my color, my shade To look your way You would paint a portrait of me To throw it in the fire You will get what you're after I won't ever forget The way that it felt As long as I live When you get what you want You find it's all violet Go on, take everything I will live through this

In the wind, in the waves In the rising tide Far away from the coast On the open sea That's where I wait That's where the anchor's fixed Of salt and smoke Of the never-ending blue In the cold, in the gloom Of the ocean floor In the black, the abyss In the emptiness Where no sailors dare A world so far from theirs Where the shipwrecks sit Like bones on the ocean floor That's where I wait That's where the anchor's fixed Of salt and stone In the crushing weight below I will build a temple At the bottom of the sea I will build a temple A cathedral in the reef I will build a temple Sanctuary in the deep I will build a temple 10,000 leagues will bury me In the cold, in the gloom At the bottom of the sea In the darkness of the abyss Where the void will swallow me

I am lost all the time I need a map to find my way I am tired all the time I need to sleep to stay awake If there's a way to shake this haze I'd like to know If I cannot find my way I'll be a ghost I am cold all the time I need a fire to light me up I am scared all the time I need a wall to keep me safe If there's a way to shake this haze I'd like to know If I cannot find my way I'll be a ghost If there's a way to lift this curse please let me know If I cannot cleanse this place the haunting won't end If there's a way to break this spell I'm begging to know No matter the price, whatever it takes I'll do anything to lay this to rest

I don't care about the truth I only care how it feels I don't care about your time I only care about mine And I don't mind I don't care about you I don't care how you feel I don't care what this means I don't care what is real And I don't mind Did you think you found my weakness? Have you ever been so wrong? Did you think I would believe it? Have you ever been so lost? And I don't mind

"To the Earth, I write this letter far too late As I sit in the prison that I've made. Though I'm not the only one to be blamed I surely played my part." It's already lost It was over before it began The dye has been cast An admission we penned in ink: "To the earth, I hope this message finds you well But it won't, you've been ill for quite some time Though I'm not the only one who didn't help I could have done my part." It's already lost It was over before it began The dye has been cast An admission we penned in ink: "What you gave we so happily took With trembling hands, afterbirth. What you lost we so easily found With little intent to return From your well, we so readily drank 'Til our silver cups overflowed From your garden, we took what we pleased. We took everything from the Earth."

I don't want to see the sun I don't want to see at all I want to cover up my eyes and live in darkness I don't want to hear a sound I don't want to hear at all I want to shut out all the noise and live in silence I want to be alone It's a beautiful day and a wonderful time To live inside my head I closed all the doors, I turned off the lights And said goodnight I don't want to feel the wind I don't want to feel at all I want to block out everything It's a beautiful day and a wonderful time To live inside my head I closed all the doors, I turned off the lights And said goodnight I want it all to end, I want it to be over I want it all to end, to go back to nothing again It's a beautiful day and a wonderful time To live inside my head I closed all the doors, I turned off the lights And said goodnight

about

Cazador Dallas, Texas

Cazador is a project by Dallas-based musician Michael Miranda, inspired by all the ridiculous emo shit he listened to as a teenager. Indulge in the dulcet tones of one man’s inescapable depression and constantly-unfolding existential crisis as he delivers song after song about his inability to cope with being a real boy. ... more
